Certainly the Blacklight test show that Microsoft EU respect way more the privacy (forced by law) than Microsoft US.

I’ve spent so little time with YouTube Shorts I didn’t know you could change the URL to a normal video
I try to avoid them as well. They show up a lot in search results for no reason, but adding something like “before:2100”, that is, refining one search to show videos before the year 2100 in this case, that removes a bunch of unrelated shorts as well. In general whenever I see a feature I don’t like, I check if others hated it as much as me and did something about it via a userscript.
I forgot about using those scripts. I’ll have to put Grease Monkey on my newer computer. I added an extension a couple months ago to stop websites from preventing me from pasting into text fields, but I’d guess using a script would be a more efficient way to deal with it than adding an extension for every annoyance!
There’s also TamperMonkey (closed source) and ViolentMonkey (also MIT license like GreaseMonkey). I prefer ViolentMonkey. I believe there was a reason many years ago where either Tamper or Grease monkey didn’t work for like a week which is why I switched, but I believe they’re all equally good.
Manifest v3 might make it harder to get going on chromium browsers in a months time, but looks like you’re on Firefox - shouldn’t be problem there.
